No, I haven't. I figured this would turn into a bit of a rat hole so I
wanted to discuss before doing anything.

This is just a first step towards being able to separate SSI. If SSI
isn't required, the JAR file can be removed from the distribution and
the only sloppiness will be that the locallized strings will remain in
other JAR files.

But for the future, if SSI were indeed able to be separated-out into a
standalone product (with obvious dependencies), this would need to be
resolved. It's fine to kick the can down the road a bit on this
decision and/or action, but I wanted to bring it up before I committed
anything.
